Wire connector RJ-45 male Hirose H7642.5-100, yellow, pack of 100

Hirose H7642.5-100 is a yellow RJ-45 male wire connector supplied in a pack of 100. Designed for network cabling and patching, it provides a standard 8-position modular interface for Ethernet installations. The connector is intended for use where a durable male RJ-45 termination is required for structured cabling, repairs, and custom cable assembly tasks.

Advantages

The connector offers a standardized 8P8C interface compatible with typical Ethernet cable terminations and patch panels. Its molded design ensures consistent contact alignment and simple insertion into female jacks. Supplied in a bulk pack of 100, it supports small-scale installations and repair work by providing an economical source of identical terminations. The yellow color helps with port and cable identification in multi-run environments.

Suitable for

• Ethernet cable assembly and crimping
• Field repairs of patch cables and network leads
• Structured cabling projects and lab testing
• Color-coded installations and cable management

Key specifications

• Connector type: male RJ-45 (8-position modular)
• Color: yellow
• Pack quantity: 100 pieces
• Application: Ethernet and network cabling
• Mounting/termination: crimp or push-fit depending on cable type and tooling

How to use

Prepare the Ethernet cable by stripping the outer jacket and arranging the conductor pairs according to the chosen wiring standard. Insert the conductors fully into the connector so that each wire reaches its corresponding contact slot. Use an appropriate crimping tool or termination method suited to this connector style to secure the contacts and provide reliable electrical connection. After termination, verify pinout and continuity with a cable tester before deploying the cable in a network environment.

Recommendations

Use consistent wiring standards (T568A or T568B) across runs to avoid mismatches. Employ a quality crimping tool sized for RJ-45 terminations to ensure secure contacts and minimal signal loss. Store unused connectors in a dry environment to prevent contamination and preserve performance.
